History
A Siluro-bodied car with cycle wings appeared with Bandini's second car in 1948 on a tube chassis of Caproni aircraft steel with a Fiat engine and an Alfa Romeo twin-cam head. The 750 cc Sport Siluro was introduced in 1950, could be converted between track and road trim by fitting or removing the wings, and was built until 1956. Bandini Siluros won SCCA 750 class titles in 1955 and 1957.
